Features & Applications:

The Level I Infrared Thermography Training Course is geared to the new infrared camera user and focuses on its use for a variety of condition monitoring/predictive maintenance applications. Attendees completing all training course requirements and an thermography field assignment will receive a Level I Infrared Thermography Certification.

Infrared Course Benefits:

• Introduction to thermal imaging and measurement systems for predictive maintenance applications. No experience in thermography is necessary!
• Collect quality data, accurate temperature readings, and account for measurement effects such as distance and emissivity using infrared cameras.
• Interpret thermograms and make informed decisions using heat transfer concepts to analyze thermal images, and see the latest in infrared inspection report generation and database software.
• Avoid costly mistakes - learn to distinguish between hot spots and reflections, direct vs. indirect readings and qualitative vs. quantitative thermography.
• Challenge yourself with field applications labs that closely simulate real-world infrared applications.
